Bay Area for network and career. Expensive but it’s great.
Career and network wise it’s the best. I’m in San Jose and love it. Apartment is not cheap though
What type of climate do you want to live? Minneapolis is a really underrated city, but has absolutely brutal winters, especially if you’re not used to living in that type of weather. On the other end, if you grew up in a mild climate (PNW for example), it definitely will take some adjusting to get used to summers in the south.
I'm open to any climate. I've lived in all and I've found ways to keep myself busy in any weather. MSP is on the list now as XC skiing is big out there and will keep me busy in the winter. Thanks.

Boca Raton for sure
Boston for sure
Chicago for sure
Denver for sure
Chief
Houston for sure
If you're willing to go to Boston, why not NYC?
I suppose I should have ranked them but not a huge fan of NYC. And quicker access to outdoors stuff from BOS.

That’s awesome. Definitely take advantage of that flexibility. I think you will gain a lot from changing it up, I know I did. Happy exploring!
Chicago or Boston. Denver isn’t a huge networking kinda city (from there)
Fair play, like EY2 said, depends on office. Will dig into that.
Not Charlotte lol
I live here, Charlotte is a great place to move when you are married and ready to raise a family. Not a poppin place to be single lol
I would say Philadelphia, being near NYC and the Northeast is a big plus
Also housing costs are not exorbitant like NYC or Boston so you will have more money to do fun stuff
Chicago pays well and its one of the largest cities in the country, and isnt too expensive to live.
Was surprised to see that. Expected prices to be much higher. Will consider it. Thanks.
BOS, ATL, or RDU
Boston
I think you’d want to look at what you want outside of work. Those cities are way different. Denver is great because of the mountains and I think the work/life balance reflects that. Bigger cities may be better from a growth of career standpoint if that’s all you’re really looking for.
Thanks for pointing that out. As of now, really looking to drive my career. I have plenty of active hobbies that will keep me busy in the city and can always come back to a smaller town down the road once I'm comfortable in my career
Philadelphia is on the way up in a lot of ways. Swallowing up the northeast people who are now priced out of Boston, NYC, and DC.
Good to know, thank you
There's a lot of variables to your choice. What type of firms would you like to work with? What sectors do you want to be involved in, such as healthcare, tech, banking, etc? Do you want established giant corps, start-ups, mid level tier organizations? What type of office culture? What is the ratio of promotes within each city/opportunities within each? Look at the clients within these cities which ones would you enjoy working on or would hate to work on, utilize that information as well. Don't forget housing costs, commute, socializing with colleagues (like it or not, this can have a huge impact) weather, proximity to family for holidays/emergencies, etc to help in your decision.
